A spine condition flare up has wrecked me, and my holiday plans, and my funds. I am looking at a hefty struggle to make it through my payday, let alone to pay rent with the bills received from the multiple visits to the ER, the medications and the heating pad/cold pack supplies, all compounded as issues with missed, unpaid work.

I understand this is a terribly tight time of the year and a season of high stress and depression for folks; I hate to even ask, so please know I will not nor ever could fault someone for being unable to help. Still, any bit could go a long way.
